Most homes complete in 1–3 days depending on the number and condition of windows, drying times and weather.

Yes. We use heritage‑appropriate finishes and protect original details; we can advise on any restrictions.

 

Will you fix sticking or rattling sashes as part of the job?

We can ease and adjust sashes and refit hardware while painting (as specified). If larger repairs are required, we’ll quote before proceeding.
